I believe the FOIA request I am seeking at this time triggered a Mandatory
Declassification Review.
Mary Ferrell was a Dallas woman who amassed a large amount of material about the
assassination of President Kennedy and other events. Her full name was Mary Elizabeth
McHughes Ferrell. She passed away in 2004. This is a link to her obituary, which was
published in The Dallas Morning News:

also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the
public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public
free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by
a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering
and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of
the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request
filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this natter. I look forward to
receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute
requires.
